Hi, I've got a new computer and installed premiere cs3, i can't get my premiere to activate.  I paid quite a bit of money for this.  all the links I have found to activate it on google/adobe don't work any longer .  I've tried Adobe support but they just tell me it's old, which I obviously know but i've paid for a perpetual licence and cs3 still completes all the tasks I need it too.  Does anyone know what to do.

CS3 servers have been taken down. There is nothing we can do for you.

I have the boxed version of CS6 creative suite ( with serial number on box) and had similar problem activating on new computer(s). I went to adobe help website and started a LIVE CHAT session. Eventually the problem was resolved by people in the adobe chat session. I took time and patience and I had to supply lots of info. You might find that route ( LIVE CHAT ) a possible solution for you.

 

My copy of CS6 had been previously activated on a computer that died. So I was already registered as a user of the program with that serial number.

CS3 is completely DEAD and gone

 

The activation server has been removed and the special non-activation version is no longer available

 

Nobody here, or at Adobe, will be able to help
